Hi, just wondering if any of you had any background/thoughts on Paul Blanchard your recent Chief Exec. He has this afternoon been named as the Quins new General Manager.

Wasn't here long enough to make much of an impact. His CV is excellent though, I hope he does well for you now he's closer to home.

Pretty competant guy from what i've heard, though you'd better stock up on pooper sccopers or the cleaner will do her nut

How long was he with you then?

About 10 minutes!

Seriously though, he has a decent CV and we all had high hopes for him, although I was always concerned he never seemed to be in any job for very long, and that proved to be the case again with us.

He'll be closer to home down south, so maybe that will be better for him.

He knows nothing about Rugby League so he should fit right in down there

As i said when they hired him he has excellent credentials and would do a fantastic job, if his hands arent tied.
